The change event fires when the mouse is released (slide stop) - which updates the value correctly on mouse release.
But, is there no way to get a accurate real-time value while the mouse is held down while dragging it all the way left and then right? Even if I let go of the mouse with the slider all the way left, the value doesnt change again until the second step when sliding it back to the right. This is a strange (non-intuitive) behavior. I guess I need to subtract 10 from the slide event value if the previous value was higher....and add 10 if the previous value was lower. And keep the change event as is.

I totally missed that change event :0 Thank you much for your help/time. -Kevin Date: Mon, 1 Jun 2009 22:39:34 -0400 Subject: [jQuery] Re: Slider Values Not Accurate at Ends From: rdwo...@gmail.com To: jquery-en@googlegroups.com Sorry, I was going off your previous instructions, so I was looking for 0 and 10. Now that I've had a closer look at your code, I see what the source of the problem is. You want to use the change event, in addition to the slide event: http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Slider#event-slide http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Slider#event-change The slide event updates while you slide it around. At the point at which slide is triggered, the slider does not yet have the new (proposed) value. The value is accessible in ui.value, so that you can return false if you don't want to allow it. But during slide if you check the value option or method, you'll get the current (soon to be previous) value. The change event fires at the very end, after it has stopped sliding and has a new value. - Richard On Mon, Jun 1, 2009 at 10:27 PM, Musixz Man <mus...@hotmail.com> wrote: Yes, I'm still experiencing the issue with the output on jsbin. Slide the top slider all the way to the left. It SHOULD show 80:20 (20 being the slider value). For me, it shows 70:30. But when I then move it back one step to the right...it then shows 80:20. Are you getting a different result? Thanks!

It's also present in any complete jQuery UI theme. http://jsbin.com/abuxi I think I did that right.... You did, but the idea is to reproduce your error there so we can see it.
